I posted this before, but no response. Hopefully the MVP folks will know the
answer.
I'm not sure how other's are using the new split form, but what I like about
it is I can design the header part of the form with buttons, graphics, etc.,
then use the lower half as a datasheet. I move the splitter bar to
completely hide the detail of the record, and only show the datasheet. This
is nice, because I don't have to have a main form for the buttons, looks,
etc., then use a subform for the datasheet, and when you maximize, the
datasheet will automatically fill the screen.
Problem is this: if you have a button that says "New Customer" or something
to that affect, and you do a newrecord command, followed by a .setfocus
command (to set the focus to the first field), Access will try to set focus
to the detail field (which is hidden by the splitter bar), and not to the
datasheet field. How on Earth does one set focus to the datasheet portion
of a slit form??? There has to be a way, but I've had no luck.
Thanks!

P.S. As one aside: If only the footer would show on a split form with
datasheet, then us developer's would really have it made! You could do one
form (w/ no subforms) that would have a header area, nice looking w/
buttons, graphics, etc., then a datasheet that would adjust to the
resolution of the monitor, then a set footer area where you could place
formatted totals, other functions, etc. As of now, split forms will only
show your form header, but anything in the form footer will not be visible.

Greetings,
I'm still something of a newbie to html/php/mysql.
I have a php/html form with several fields of type "input". If the user
enters improper data in a particular field and clicks the Submit button,
the php script has to trap it and return a javascript error message box
with an OK button. That part I've already got down.
But, you know how in Visual Basic you can set the focus on the offending

Hello folks, I'm looking for a script to validate a specific number
value in a standard form input field.
An example would be, if someone enters a number into a form input, I
want the script to validate it and give an alert if that the number
exceeds the set script value.
Like if the script value is set for 3000 and the number 3002 is
entered, I want an alert to pop and give a warning,
BTW - This script must be generic enough to work...

Hey folks,
I was going to include a contact form on my website. Well, in the first place that seemed an easy thing to do with a form that prompts a PHP file validating the input vaiables and using it's mail () function to send the mail. However, as I got more into that topic I realized that one should be really concerned about the validation part to prevent spam abuse.
There are shiploads of 'mail scripts' available with each of them has...

I posted a few days ago that it seems to me that the Access 2007 rich text
feature does not support: a) full text justification; b) programmatic

I was hoping that someone might know one way or the other whether that was
true or not, or could point me to an article or help text that would. What I
have seen so far online and in Access 2007 help seems to confirm the above.
But that (or at least (b)) seems incredible that it...

Hello,
I like the split forms in access 2007, because you can still do the header,
and any tool buttons, yet have the datasheet look without the need for 2
forms (main form / subform). However, if you add a button for "New Record",
and try to set focus to the first field, it will set the focus to the top
detail of the split form (even if you have this hidden with the splitter
bar). Does anyone know how to get the focus to go to the...

Hello all! This is my first posting here, although I've been lurking here for months and getting lots of help & tips from the past posts here.
I'm in the process of updating our company's Access 2003 database to 2007, and while we're finding some of the new perks to be neat, I'm having a problem getting some of them to behave as we've envisioned. For starters, we're using the new Split Form feature. When the split form datasheet shows up...

Now that everything seems to be fixed in the 1st service pack of the 2007
runtime, I'm wondering if anyone else has seen the annoying focus problem?
What happens is you'll open a form, and the flashing cursor will just
disappear. Seems to happen mainly on split forms. Just curious how
wide-spread this is, and if anyone else has the same issue.
